NAME: ______

Periodic Table

Model 2: Modern Periodic Table
In the Modern Periodic table, the elements are ordered by increasing atomic number. The horizontal row corresponds to filling shells of electrons where the Noble gases at the end of each row correspond to filled shells and are therefore very stable (more about this later).
Periods– horizontal rows in the Periodic Table. For identification purposes they are numbered 1 through 7 starting with the row that only contains H and He.
Groups– vertical columns containing elements with similar properties. They are also referred to as families of elements due to the similarity in properties. There are two numbering conventions are used to label the groups.
  • The international scientific convention (IUPAC) numbers each column 1 through 18.
  • Chemists in North America favor the system where the longer groups are labeled 1A to 8A (1, 2, 13 – 18 in the IUPAC system) and the shorter groups are labeled 1B to 8B (or 3 – 12 in the IUPAC system) in the sequence depicted in the Periodic Table at the end of this activity.
  • A groups are known as the representative or main group elements.
  • B groups are called the transition elements. They are located in the center of the periodic table.
  • Group numbers 1A through 8A tell you the number of valence electrons an element has.
Valence electrons– outer electrons that are most important in determining the chemical bonding and other properties of the element. The valence electrons are determined by the number of electrons past the Noble gas atoms, Group 8A.
Inner transition elements– elements in the two long rows below the main body of the table.
  • Each row is named after the element that it follows in the main body of the table.
  • Elements 58–71 are thelanthanide elements because they follow lanthanum (Z = 57)
  • Elements 90–103 are theactinide elements because they follow actinium (Z =89).
Post-Transition metals– main group metals that occur immediately following a row of transition metals
  • i.e., in groups 3A – 6A that occur in rows 4 – 7 of the periodic table.
  • Ex. Tin (Sn) and lead (Pb)
Many transition metals and post-transition metals form more than one positive ion.
There are three categories of elements in the Periodic Table: metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.
Metals are located in the left and center.
  • Good conductors of heat and electricity.
  • Readily lose electrons to form positive ions, called cations.
Nonmetals are in the upper right-hand corner.
  • Poor conductors of heat and electricity.
  • Readily gain electrons to form negative ions, called anions.
Metalloids separate the metals and nonmetals.
  • Eight elements on a diagonal line: B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po and At.
  • Also called semimetals or semiconductors because their conductivity is between that of metals nonmetals.

Key Questions:

1.What information about an element is provided in each box for that element in the Periodic Table in the model?

2.What determines the sequence of the elements from the first to the last?

3.Where are the metals, nonmetals, and metalloids located?

4.What is the difference between a group and a period?

5.How can you determine the total number of electrons that a neutral atom has from the Periodic Table?

6.How can you determine the number of valence electrons that atoms in groups 1, 2 and 13 through 18 have?

7.Helium is a monatomic gas, and it extremely unreactive. What other elements would we expect to have similar properties?

Exercises:

1.Write the name, symbol, atomic number, and average mass for the Group 2 metal in Period 3.

2.Write the name, symbol, average mass, and number of protons for the Group 16 nonmetal in Period 2.

3.Write the name, symbol, average mass, and number of electrons for the Group 15 metalloid in Period 4

4.Write the name and symbol of the uncharged element that has 48 electrons.

5.Name two elements that have properties similar to sodium, Na. How many valence electrons does each of these three elements have?

Model 3:Naming Binary Compounds/Nomenclature
  • Binary compounds are molecules or ionic compounds that are composed of only two elements.
  • In general, we name each element in the order they appear in the chemical formula.
  • For the first element, we use the English name of the element
  • For the second element, we use the stem of the English name and add the ide ending.
Table 2. Elements, English Names of Elements, Stem and Name with –ide Ending
Chemical Symbol / Stem / Name as First Element / Name as Second Element
O / ox– / oxygen / oxide
N / nitr– / nitrogen / nitride
P / phosph– / phosphorous / phosphide
S / sulf– / sulfur / sulfide
Cl / chlor– / chlorine / chloride
F / fluor– / fluorine / fluoride
Br / brom– / bromine / bromide
I / iod– / iodine / iodide

Key Questions:

8.What does the term binary covalent mean?

9.What ending is applied to the root of the second element in the name?

Model 3 A:Naming Binary Covalent Compounds
A binary covalent compound is formed from two different non-metals.
In covalentmolecules we use using number prefixes before each element name to indicate the number of each type of element.
1.Number prefix + 1st element English name
2.Number prefix + stem of 2nd second element English name + ide.
Table 3. Greek Number Prefixes
Greek prefixes / Number of like atoms / Greek prefixes / Number of like atoms
mono / 1 (omitted on 1st atom) / hexa / 6
di / 2 / hepta / 7
tri / 3 / octa / 8
tetra / 4 / nona / 9
penta / 5 / deca / 10
Table 4. Examples of Naming Binary Covalent Molecules
Molecular Formula / Name / Molecular Formula / Name
HCl / hydrogen chloride / H2S / hydrogen sulfide
CO / carbon monoxide / PBr3 / phosphorous tribromide
CO2 / carbon dioxide / CCl4 / carbon tetrachloride
There are a few exceptions were we use the common name rather than the name based on the rules above.
H2O is waterNH3 is ammonia

Key Questions:

10.What prefixes are used to indicate the number of atoms when there is more than one possibility?

11.In what types of compounds do you use number prefixes?

Exercises:

6.For each molecular compound given below fill in the missing name or formula.

Molecular Formula / Name

dinitrogen tetrasulfide
PF5
carbon tetrachloride
HBr
tellurium dihydride
N2O5
nitrogen dioxide
Model 3B:Naming Binary Ionic Compounds
Binary ionic compounds consist of a metal and a nonmetal.
The metal forms the cation and the nonmetal is the anion.
Namingioniccompounds:
  1. The cationis named first using the element’s English name.
  2. The anion name is named second using the stem of the element’s English name and adding ide to the end.
No number prefixes are used in ionic compound names!
3.If a metal forms onlyone positiveion, the cation name is the English name for the metal.
4.Transition metals and Post Transition Metals that can have more than one charge:
  • Give the English name for the cation followed, without a space, by the numerical value of the charge written as a Roman numeral in parentheses.
Table 5. Metals and their common oxidation states
Main Group Metals / Common Charges / Main Group Metals / Common Charges
Sodium / Na+ / Alkali Metals / +1
Magnesium / Mg2+ / Alkaline Earth metals / +2
Aluminum / Al3+
Transition Metals / Common Charges / Transition Metals / Common Charges
Chromium / Cr2+, Cr3+ / Copper / Cu+, Cu2+
Manganese / Mn2+, Mn3+ / Zinc / Zn2+
Iron / Fe2+, Fe3+ / Silver / Ag+
Cobalt / Co2+, Co3+ / Cadmium / Cd2+

Mercury / Hg22+, Hg2+
Post-transition Metals / Common Charges / Post-transition Metals / Common Charges

Lead / Pb2+, Pb4+
The Group 5 non-metal anions have a charge of –3, the Group 6 anions have a charge of –2, and the Group 7 anions have a charge of –1.
Writing formulas of ionic compounds from their names:
  1. The cation is given first in the formula and the anion is given second.
  2. The subscripts in the formula must produce an electrically neutral chemical formula.
  3. The subscripts should be a set of the smallest whole numbers possible.
  4. The charges on ions are not included in the finished formula of the substance.
